in Chit-Chat
Some of you might call me a Debbie Downer but i'd say the majority of the posts in this section has have NOTHING to do with weight loss. Maybe thats the point of it, but it is annoying to see chat threads come up "would you bone the person above you", "what sport did the person above you play in high school" blah blah blah..

I really wish MFP had an option to just remove this section completely from the feed. It has zero benefit for me, and I think there are a lot of people on here who are not here for weight loss and fitness instead using this section as myspace, or worse yet- Plenty of Fish dating site.

OK that is my rant- I know there is nothing I can do to remove it, but most of you are annoying me!! :)

    There is no avoiding seeing it on the community feed. The majority of people post on there so I need to weed through them until I can find a subject that actually interests and motivates me.

    Here's a crazy idea…if you know the subject you're interested in you could do a search for it. Crazy I know…

    Also, yes this is a weight loss site, however, while losing weight people need to live their lives too. Living includes connecting, and laughing at things in Chit-Chat, fun and games. So if you don't like it, then don't look at it. Do as I suggested above and search. Or click on the view all forums, then click on the forum you want to go into.

    I really wish MFP had an option to just remove this section completely from the feed. It has zero benefit for me, and I think there are a lot of people on here who are not here for weight loss and fitness instead using this section as myspace, or worse yet- Plenty of Fish dating site.

    Suggestion: don't be friends with people who come into the chit-chat forums or hide their posts from your feed.

    There are a lot of people on this website who absolutely use it for weight loss and use this section to meet like-minded people. You don't like it? Who cares.

    There isn't anything you can do to remove it and you're annoying the rest of us with your post so the feeling is mutual.

    Cheers! :drinker:

    I think what you should really ask for is the ability to choose what forums you see over to the right. Just because you can't appreciate a little humor to get you through the day doesn't mean everyone is like that. I wish we could get rid of people that don't know how to use the search but I don't ask them to be banned!

    Look!! Look! Shortly you'll be able to do just that! Opt out of parts of the board that don't interest you or have any value to you. Link is below on the coming changes!

    I'm Sooo with you! To look at 'most recent posts' and only see chat chit and games... :yawn: but...not for long!:bigsmile:

    BTW.... I would never call you Debbie, unless of course your name was Debbie! :tongue:

    Funny thing ... you're the only one not blocked on this entire thread... when I opened it up.:flowerforyou:

    I would be okay with it if those people were banned.

    I think we should be able to filter the sections we do / don't want to see there ... that would make everyone happy.

    How about it MFP ?
